Why We Love Stephen King Novels

Why do we love Stephen Kingnovels? Is it the intense characters, the amazing background stories or the suspenseful way he writes? Whatever the reason, you will always be entertained by a Stephen King novel. Many people call Stephen King the modern day Charles Dickens. I can see why there is a comparison. Both men are the most amazing story tellers of their time.

I bought my first Stephen Kingnovel from Amazon. From the moment I began reading "The Shining," I became a devoted fan of Stephen King works. Who can forget the immediate chills caused by the phrase, "redrum," as little Danny Torrence writes "murder" on the mirror?

I have read many novels by Stephen King. I have been shocked by "Carrie." I have been frozen in terror by "Pet Cemetery." And I actually became frightened of my own dog after reading, "Cujo." And after reading "Christine" I now name all of my cars. It is easy to see how Stephen King's writings have influenced and integrated today's society.

I was pleased to find out that Amazon carries most of Stephen King's novels. Amazon even has a few of the rare editions left in their stock. I have created a listing of my favorite books by Stephen King. Just shop at the store below or follow the search link to go directly to Amazon. Come on, you know you need a good thrill every now and then.
